Feeling dread as you witness beloved institutions and ideas get damaged or destroyed? How are you going to sustain morale through all this?This episode offers language, tools, and pragmatic resources to help you or your team mourn, so that you can continue to organize. Our guest Meico Marquette Whitlock shares the concept of social impact grief.

Meico emphasizes that grief isn't linear and shouldn't be avoided, but rather embraced as fuel for continued work.The episode concludes with information about Whitlock's books, retreats, and consulting services, which position self-care as essential for sustainable social change work.BIO:Meico Marquette Whitlock is The Mindful Changemaker and The Mindful Techie.

Being a college president has never been the easiest job. But today, it seems an impossible one. The campus may still be a place that encourages students to think critically and to cultivate a network of fellow creative problem-solvers. But those goals have been overshadowed by concerns over academic freedom and free speech, the challenges of building a welcoming community in the face of anti-DEI legislation and more. In her latest book, “Perils and Promise: College Leadership in Turbulent Times,” Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum, an award-winning psychologist, president emerita of Spelman College and best-selling author, sees room for hope -- and solutions.

Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/beherenow and get on your way to being your best self.In this episode, hosted by Jackie Dobrinska, Amy Buetens & Julie Weinstein discuss:Utilizing beginner's mind as a tool for approaching the chaos of our worldKeeping our hearts open in hell and holding multiple truths at once.Embracing change and uncertainty rather than seeing it as a threatIncreasing our equanimity in order to support ourselves and others Being in the presence of suffering without creating more sufferingLooking at what is as a heartfelt service to ourselves and humanityMeditation as an opportunity to explore our identity Teen mental health struggles and overwhelm from the weight of the worldCompassionate action and working towards the end of sufferingRam Dass's recurring examples of self-love and self-acceptanceLeaving room for all of life's unknown possibilities, the full spectrum of joy and sufferingGrab a copy of You are the Universe, an impactful graphic novel arranged and illustrated by Amy & Julie. This vibrant hand-drawn book chronicles the unconventional journey and self-discovery of Ram Dass. About Amy Buetens:Amy Buetens is an artist, illustrator, and art educator. She is a certified integrative thanatologist and death educator. Her work includes performing final rites of passage, and she serves as a leader in her Jewish burial society. She has been a dedicated student of Ram Dass for over 20 years, and is a co-leader for the Love Serve Remember Foundation's International Women's Satsang and leads her local Ram Dass Fellowship."At the same time as there is this negative news, let's also keep in mind this is an incredible time of blessings. We can hold multiple truths at once. This is a time of great joy, there are advances in science and technology, public and global health. There are so many things we could count our blessings for, and I think Ram Dass would encourage us all to spend time to think about balancing both with a neutral perspective, seeing it just the way it is.” – Amy BuetensAbout Julie Weinstein:Julie Weinstein's professional career is devoted to advancing environmental and social justice. She also serves as both a Jewish and Buddhist chaplain in the jails, within the justice movement and for people experiencing loss, grief and trauma. She is a death educator, burial society leader, and artist, and is pursuing ordination as a rabbi. She's been practicing Ram Dass's teachings for over two decades, and co-leads community initiatives for the Love Serve Remember Foundation.“Watching Ram Dass as this wise sage in complete bliss, saying over and over again, ‘I am loving awareness'. To know that it is possible to go from such self-loathing or self-hatred to complete bliss and believing that he is pure loving awareness, and also wanting that for us too. It gives a lot of us hope when we're struggling with our own identity, sexuality, shortcomings.” - Julie WeinsteinAbout The Host, Jackie Dobrinska:Jackie Dobrinska is the Director of Education, Community & Inclusion for Ram Dass' Love, Serve, Remember Foundation and the current host of Ram Dass' Here & Now podcast. She is also a teacher, coach, and spiritual director with the privilege of marrying two decades of mystical studies with 15 years of expertise in holistic wellness.

Today, in addition to building courses and community for LSRF, she leads workshops and coaches individuals to discover, nourish and live from their most authentic selves.“You and I are the force for the transformation in the world. We are the consciousness that will define the nature of the reality we are moving into. Shifting our consciousness has the power to change our inner and outer universe. That's why you work on yourself. That's what help you offer. You work on yourself through everything in your life.”– Ram DassSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Novo Nordisk's drug Wegovy has successfully reduced cardiovascular risk by 57% compared to tirzepatide. Eli Lilly has terminated two mid-stage trials for a second obesity asset, while Vertex Pharmaceuticals and Enlaza Therapeutics have formed a potential $2 billion partnership to develop drugs for autoimmune diseases.

The FDA's new radiopharma guidance is expected to accelerate the space, and Teva has launched the first generic version of Novo Nordisk's obesity drug Saxenda. The pharmaceutical industry is navigating uncertainty during turbulent times, with companies focusing on innovation and new partnerships to drive progress.The FDA has issued new radiopharma guidance, which former FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn believes is crucial for cancer therapy. Despite recent investments in radiopharmaceutical therapeutics by big pharma, the FDA's approval of updated COVID-19 vaccines with restrictions contradicts the medical freedom promised by health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Rare diseases secured four FDA firsts in August, including a win for Novo Nordisk's glp-1 drug WeGovy. Investment in new ALS therapies signals progress after setbacks, with new biotechs and collaborative initiatives showing promise at Bio2025.

According to former college president Beverly Daniel Tatum, Trump's war on university admissions is deeply hypocritical. On the one hand, she argues, his attack on affirmative action admissions policy is made in the populist language of “anti-woke” egalitarianism; but on the other, wealthy families are already gaming college admissions through clever manipulation of the system. A Harvard study revealed that athletes, legacies, donors' children, and faculty offspring—categories overwhelmingly benefiting affluent white families—receive admission advantages far exceeding any diversity program. Yet while demanding universities abandon "racial proxies," Trump's administration simultaneously insists on counting student demographics, exposing the contradiction in claims of colorblind meritocracy.Tatum's new book, Peril and Promise: College Leadership in Turbulent Times, draws from her extensive experience as President of both Mount Holyoke College and Spelman College. Tatum discussed her controversial decision to eliminate NCAA sports at Spelman, redirecting resources toward wellness programs for all students rather than competitive athletics for a few. She also addressed the broader challenges facing higher education, from AI's potential to transform teaching and reduce costs to the ongoing mental health crisis on campuses, presenting herself as both a trustworthy insider and experienced observer of college education in our unusually turbulent times. Even opponents of affirmative action might learn something from the wise Dr Tatum.* The Real Admissions Advantage Goes to Wealth, Not Race - A Harvard study shows that "ALDCs" (Athletes, Legacies, Donors' children, faculty Children) receive far greater admissions boosts than any affirmative action program ever provided, with these categories disproportionately benefiting affluent white families.* Trump's "Colorblind" Approach Is Contradictory - While demanding universities stop using "racial proxies" and claiming to want merit-based admissions, the administration simultaneously insists on counting and tracking student demographics by race.* 2025 Is Uniquely Turbulent for Higher Education - Tatum, who lived through the Vietnam era and other crisis periods, believes the current government intervention in university operations represents the most intense challenge to academic freedom she's experienced in decades.* College Sports Often Drain Resources from Student Wellness - Tatum eliminated NCAA sports at Spelman College, redirecting funds toward fitness and wellness programs that benefit all students rather than the small percentage who compete, especially given data showing young Black women's sedentary lifestyles.* AI Will Transform College Costs and Teaching - While startup costs for AI implementation are significant, early experiments show promise for reducing expenses and improving learning outcomes, such as AI tutors available 24/7 that outperformed traditional teaching methods in physics classes.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Tom Bilyeu delivers a powerful deep dive into the warning signs of societal collapse that are blinking red across America. He draws on lessons from history—citing the downfalls of the Roman Empire, the USSR, Argentina, and more—to show how debt spirals, the hollowing out of the middle class, collapsing trust, and rising populism are patterns we've seen before, and are seeing again right now. Tom breaks down why these cycles are so hard to interrupt, why common solutions like socialism and “just grow the economy” fall short, and most importantly, he lays out a practical playbook for not just surviving, but thriving during chaotic times. From protecting yourself with assets and skills, to finding business-friendly environments, Tom gets specific about what you can do to come out stronger on the other side—because every collapse hurts most, but creates unprecedented opportunity for a prepared few. If you care about your future, and the future of the country, this is an urgent and actionable listen.
